Trend analysis for Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac

Between 2017 and 2024, Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 6.0 to 6.2 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 3% increase across 7 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2017, at a TCR of 6.0, while 2023 saw the highest rate, at 29.0, a spread of 23.0 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a wide swing relative to the establishment's overall rate, worth checking the year-by-year table below for whether a single severe year is driving the average, rather than a sustained trend.

Summed across those 6 reporting years, Paradise Chevrolet Cadillac recorded 40 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 6-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2024)

What is the DART rate formula?

DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.

3 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 387,800 hours worked = 1.55 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
